           Summary: REGRESSION(r39293-r39370) Loading Gmail crashes Safari
                    3.1 + r39370 WebKit Nightlies
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
               URL: http://mail.google.com
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: P1
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mhstamate at yahoo.com


Tested on:
- Windows XP SP3
- Apple Safari for Windows 3.1.2 using the r39370 WebKit nightly build for
Windows from http://nightly.webkit.org/
- Intel P4 2.4 GHz CPU (single core)
- javascript is enabled

How often it happens: always, if the following steps are reproduced

Steps to reproduce the crash:
1. start Safari, clear its cache (Edit -> Empty Cache), then clear its history
(History -> Clear History), then clear all of its google cookies (Edit ->
Preferences -> Security -> Show cookies -> select any google.com or mail.google
com or www.google.com cookies and delete them by pressing "Remove")
2. close Safari
3. start Safari
4. do nothing else but browse to mail.google.com then log into a google mail
account
5. at the end of the loading process, Safari throws an unhandled exception and
the browser has crashed

Notes:
1) if accessing the Gmail account is not the first thing to be done, then it's
possible that Safari will not crash.
2) this is more of a guess, but maybe when Safari loads Gmail and has to create
some of the Gmail cookies, it will crash only if those cookies were not saved
on disk and are being created now

The previous WebKit nightly build for Windows on nightly.webkit.org (r39293)
does not crash during loading Gmail (but it will sometimes hang Gmail
indefinitely with a Still working... message)

The next WebKit nightly build for Windows on nightly.webkit.org (r39370) does
crash Safari.
